  Elizabeth Olsen and Sam Raimi save 'Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness' from itself After the events of 'WandaVision', Wanda Maximoff / The Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) is desperate to be reunited with her children and will stop at nothing to find them somewhere in the infinite realities of the multiverse. America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez) has the ability to move throughout these different realities but cannot control it, and needs the protection and guidance of Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch)... Although it's been six years since there's been a solo outing for 'Doctor Strange', the bearded conjurer hasn't been all that absent from our screens and appeared in some shape or fashion in the Marvel Cinematic Universe throughout this time. As a character, Doctor Strange has always been something of a third wheel in proceedings when paired with Iron Man. They've both got questionable facial hair, they're both quippy, and they both

  Top Gun: Maverick' is a flight into fantasy Captain Pete 'Maverick' Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is recalled to the Fighter Weapons School in San Diego to train a collection of former graduates - including Bradley 'Rooster' Bradshaw (Miles Teller), the son of his deceased co-pilot - for a daring mission with a low chance of success. While training a new generation of pilots, Mitchell reconnects with an old flame (Jennifer Connelly) and an old friend (Val Kilmer)... It's not surprising that the Cruiser is back in the cockpit, flying jet fighters and clenching his jaw into oblivion. Paramount needs a box office hit. Cinemas need a box office draw. Audiences are looking for action that doesn't require complete knowledge of a cinematic universe to understand. If you're over the age of 30, odds are you've seen 'Top Gun' and if you haven't, it's because you just chose not to. For a time in the early nineties, it played almost every week on Netwo

  Alex Garland's 'Men' is a sickening brew of horrors After tragedy throws her life into upheaval, Harper Marlow (Jessie Buckley) books a beautiful country home for a few weeks to recuperate. While there, she encounters several men (Rory Kinnear) and is soon drawn into a vortex of mayhem and horror... Much of Alex Garland's directorial work and some of his writing work has been about how men ultimately end up destroying or perverting what they've created. 'Ex Machina', in particular, was a pointed examination of how advanced robotics in the hands of men would of course lead to them trying to make sex robots in the first instance. The miniseries 'Devs' took in artificial intelligence, but was really about how men, when given total control over space-time, will ultimately create horrors beyond comprehension. 'Annihilation' examined the idea of self-destruction as it spins out from grief and depression, though its central cast was primarily made

  Kylie Minogue says she was put 'under pressure' to appear in the 'Neighbours' finale & talks about meeting Conor McGregor As you may have heard, Australian soap 'Neighbours' will come to an end in August, after 37 years. It will bow out with an hour-long special that will feature some characters from the past - although it seems that not all of them were ready and willing to return to Erinsborough. Kylie Minogue has revealed that she felt under pressure to make an appearance in the finale in an interview with Seth Myers. "When I was 19, I finished school and signed up for the dole, because I thought I was never gonna get a job - but I got this role in Neighbours in 1986. She added: "There was quite a bit of pressure for me to come back, so I shot my scenes back in Australia,” although she did acknowledge what a springboard the show was for her music career. The soap famously launched the careers of the likes of Kylie, Jason Donovan, Guy Pearce an

  10 Questions with... Sophie Doyle Ryder Rising Irish pop star Sophie Doyle Ryder has steadily been building her profile over the last year or so with the release of singles like ‘Hunni Hunni’ and ‘Mood’.  Now, ahead of a busy summer of festival dates, the 19-year-old Dubliner - who was tipped as one of the RTE 2FM Rising acts for 2022 - has released her debut EP ‘Beginner’s Luck’. ‘Beginner’s Luck’ is described as “a special piece of art that portrays all the possible emotions of being a young person… full of bright and powerful feelings whilst also being fun and easy going.” To mark its release, we caught up with Sophie to learn more about her music and her influences. 1.What’s the music that you listened to growing up, that you still listen to today? Definitely Coldplay, Gwen Stefani and Mary Black. My parents were super musical, so I was always surrounded by music.  2. In three words, describe the minute before you walk on stage. I’m gonna puke (in a good way.) 3. How do you wind

  Xbox are allowing developers to add demos to Game Pass Xbox Game Pass may be resurrecting the lost art of the game demo. Sarah Bond, Corporate Vice President at Microsoft, said that Xbox are planning on encouraging developers to develop demos of their games for their Game Pass service and will offer financial incentives to developers who develop demos for their service. Bond said "Xbox has seen fewer and fewer opportunities for developers to put games on event showfloors and present them directly to potential fans, and this could harm smaller developers struggling to be seen in an online space." "So we said, you know what, what don't we take Game Pass and make it like the showfloor?," Bond continued. "Why don't we make it possible for developers to take a piece, a level of their game, release it into Game Pass, generate excitement for what's coming, and also get that really valuable feedback as they're tuning and preparing their game for launc

  The first reactions to 'Lightyear' are overwhelmingly positive The premiere for 'Lightyear', the hyped spinoff of the 'Toy Story' franchise happened last night and the reactions are very promising. The film stars Chris Evans as Buzz Lightyear, but not as we know him. Confusingly, the Buzz Lightyear we know and love, voiced by Tim Allen, is actually the toy version of the real (inside the 'Toy Story' universe) Buzz, a space explorer. While some people had their reservations that a spinoff to the adored Pixar franchise was needed, it's good to hear that that movie seems to be a hit. Here are some of the best reactions on Twitter under the #Lightyear hashtag: There seems to be a lot of love in particular for Sox, Buzz's robotic feline companion in the film, voiced by Peter Sohn. It looks like Pixar took a leaf out of the box of 'The Mandalorian' and went for their own Baby Yoda cutesy companion. Joining Evans and Sohn in the voice cast are
